In the Air - Antitrust

This world is plagued
With antitrust
The world gets smaller
And less robust
Small print
That nobody reads
And seemingly
Small people too fatigued
To compete
But its time to flourish
The matches start burnin'
The den of the wolves
Who couldn't even be bothered to cover themselves in fleece
And I refuse to be
A pretender
I am no longer at peace
I refuse to be
Numbed by the quantity
Of shocking and vile qualities
Beaten down, amnesiac
We cannot simply ignore or forget
How it oughta be

I am a witness to this place
I am a witness a blurry face
I am a witness to this case
Of arson within our world today

We are all watching and maybe we care
But what good is that
If we wouldn't dare
To stir, I'm disturbed
That we cannot be
Anything seen that is a controversy
When we gain our stance and knowledge
From sources we trust blindly
How can we possibly say
We're doing anything but following
The fuel has been added
It's time to rise
Time to stoke the flames
We've had it
Fire away
I see the whites of their eyes
Climb it
The mountain of bodies
Every cause is costly
Wear it
On your sleeve
The bastards win when we're silent

I am a witness to this place
I am a witness a blurry face
I am a witness to this case
Of arson within our world today

When our children's bones grow fragile
Will they raise their hands to lies?
Everybody wants to speak a piece
Then ignores what they think is right
Fuck

Cease and desist
To those who name the right price
I'm begging
Help me keep my light
